Lovejoy High School students and faculty will celebrate on Monday the school’s designation as a “No Place for Hate” school. It is the first Clayton County school to receive the honor. The school completed a year of anti-bias and anti-bullying programs. Representatives from the Anti-Defamation League will present the school with its official designation banner. The event will be held at the school, 1587 Mcdonough Road in Hampton. Over 200 schools in the southeast participate in the No Place for Hate campaign.
